Hof's Hut Restaurant & Bakery

Amazing Brunch Experience at Hof's Hut We recently visited Hof's Hut for brunch and had a fantastic experience. The ambiance on the patio was delightful, offering a comfortable and inviting space. It was great to see so many families enjoying their meals together, which added to the warm and friendly atmosphere. We ordered the mimosa tray, which was not only a great value but also a perfect way to start our meal. The food was outstanding—my chicken wings were perfectly crispy and juicy, and my egg and steak plate was cooked to perfection with the steak being flavorful and tender, cooked exactly to the right temperature. My wife’s salad was fresh and crunchy, with the greens tasting incredibly fresh. To top it all off, we indulged in the cheesecake with seasonal peaches for dessert, and it was absolutely delicious. We left completely satisfied and are already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend

I've been meaning to try this place @ Torrance but had passed by thus resto on the way & decided to have dinner here. All the food items we ordered were good. Serving portions was decent for the price. Service is good.

The food at Hof's Hut in Long Beach is consistently excellent, and the atmosphere is comfortable and relaxing. However, the service tends to be slower than expected and occasionally disorganized. It’s not uncommon to wait at the host stand while several staff members walk by without acknowledging you—though seating guests may not be their responsibility, a simple greeting would make the experience more welcoming. Meals take longer than anticipated, but the wait is worth it because the food is outstanding and reasonably priced. That said, service can be inconsistent. Yesterday, a server noticed at the last second that one of our drinking glasses was dirty and, rather than swapping it out, wiped the rim with her fingers. It was a moment that reminded me of Thanksgiving with my aunt, who, when asked to pass the rolls, simply handed one over with her bare hands. There were also some mix-ups with our order. Part of our meal arrived late—only for us to realize it had been delivered to the wrong table. When we pointed it out, the server retrieved the dish, and for a brief moment, I wasn’t sure if it would be replaced or just brought straight to us. The staff member reassured us we’d get a new plate from the kitchen, but it was back on our table so fast that I couldn't be entirely sure it wasn’t the same plate that had been sitting on someone else's table for 5 or 10 minutes. That said, I ate it, and it tasted great. Bottom line: The food is excellent, the atmosphere is welcoming, and while the service is slower than expected and occasionally a bit unpolished, the staff is always friendly. If you don’t mind a leisurely pace and a laid-back, homey charm—where kindness sometimes outweighs professionalism—Hof's Hut in Long Beach will always satisfy you with excellent food.

Nice friendly service. This restaurant has been here for many years. The hamburger is always good and the bakery items are always a good bet.

I've loved Hof's since the days of the Cerritos and Westminster locations. Always loved the bakery and it used to be an awesome Sunday-after-church brunch. This was my first time at this location and I have to say it was a bit of a disappointment. Our group of 8 was seated right away on the patio. Fernando barely blurted out his name as he introduced himself as our waiter. I'm quite aware of the busy atmosphere, but he could use a little more humility in admitting he'd forgotten items, rather than "it's almost ready" in a condescending tone. We'd all had our muffins with our coffee, except for one. She politely waited and waited until finally asking him. Rude. He got our orders correct, just wasn't gracious at all. He moved so fast, which, again I am well aware that he needed to. But so fast, we'd have to practically grab him physically to get his attention. Maybe someone could teach him about eye contact? Atmosphere was loud, but again, Sunday morning. Doubtful I'll be coming back.

Good 1st time here. Dog friendly seating, which was a BIG plus, considering I brought my dog with me. Service was pretty good here! The food was good, but my partner said his plate wasn't the greatest ( steak, mashed potatoes & veggies ). I had no complaints, My kid got chicken tenders & fries. I got the French dip with Au Jus sauce & fries....sooo good! I recommend this spot most definitely, I'll be back to try other plates.

Loved the atmosphere!! Great experience!! Our server was amazing and I asked her to pick me an entree out of a few I was debating on. She did fantastic. Can’t remember her name, but she was Vegan. She was amazing. Vacationing from Alabama!!

Went with our Cross Country Team and filled out many seats and gave our server lots of work; indeed, our server Evonne was amazing ^_^! Thank you.

Trish was an absolute delight! We visited for our first time and found it a wonderful oasis of good food, TERRIFIC service from Trish and just a very pleasant experience. Trish even recommended a sandwich that was not on the menu that brought back great memories of family times at the Buena Park location (now sadly closed for some time) We found this by finding a halfway place between Redondo Reach and west Corona. This was a little more out of the way than our usual recent get togethers, but I think this is the new "go-to" spot for us. Well worth the extra drive.

Trish is always the finest server in all the land!! Thank you Trish for always being attentive and detail oriente!

Great breakfast spot. Excellent, fast service from Trish and the omelette was perfect. Will be back.

Had a wonderful experience again dining here: - Cozy, warm environment with nice booths w privacy shields (not often found) in designated booth areas. - Awesome jazzy playlist of Oldies tune. My Mom would of enjoyed it. Thanks so much to the Hof Hut team especially my waitress, Trish! Grateful to your friendly, professional service. Nice to see someone who also enjoys these classic vocal jazz tunes.

Hof's Hut is a nice staple in Long Beach. Very good breakfast place. We went for the Dine LB menu for two, for dinner. Offer includes choice of soup or salad, entree with two sides, choice of bread, and a slice of pie. So much food. Very generous portions. I ordered salad and Chicken Fried Steak. My husband ordered soup (Brocoli Cheddar).and the Meatloaf. We left with doggie bags and our pie slices to go! Service was excellent! Our server Liz, was so friendly and helpful. She made sure our drinks were stayed filled. She checked on us frequently and made sure we had all the containers and bags for us to pack up the leftovers! Parking is easy at this location. Large lot with ample spots even with several other restaurants in the same center.

Trish was a phenomenal server with a friendly attitude ... The food was also very good and location was clean and peaceful.. I definitely definitely will return.. Shelby

Very good American comfort food. The menu features all of the meals you might find at home or if not your house, the home of your mom or grandma. They cover the basics for breakfast and do the basics well. They make a tasty burger and I really like the fish & chips. The interior is comfortable and the service is efficient. They do get crowded during peak hours to plan accordingly. Spotlight on all the delicious desserts available usually fresh from the onsite bakery. Park on the street or behind the strip mall style structures.

Love hofs hut ! Located in a plaza with plenty of parking ! Staff is always so nice here and welcoming :) . They have plenty of tables they have a patio options as well ! Definitely able to come here eat alone in the 'bar' section , family friendly for big groups . OBSESSED with their Dutch pie it is so good especially warmed up ! So far every dish I have tried has tasted good ! This is like a regular diner but the food has been good and the pies even more . My bf said best milkshake he's ever had ! Coffee is always tasting good as well ! Recently loved their chicken dish with the gravy ! So good ! It's a must try and can't wait to come try more dishes and maybe different pies ;)

I can't remember the last time I've been to Hof's Hut. I had to wait for an x-ray appointment and figured I'd revisit HH for lunch. The service was great. I ordered a French dip and it was really good. In short, I was both surprised and relieved to see that HH was still a good place to eat. We will be putting it back into rotation.

Hof's is the best diner in town. The food always hits and the service is always friendly. This time around I got a pancake combo with bacon and eggs and my friends and I shared the zucchini sticks. First time having the zucchini sticks and I will be ordering them again. Trish gave us great service!

Worst server Iv ever had. I asked questions and he would not answer me directly, he was like you can do what ever you want, when I asked if bacon & toast come with the meal. I was given a dirty coffee cup and served warm coffee, it smelled burnt to me. I had to ask another server for a fresh hot pot of coffee. Server needs to be more friendly. we all pay to go out to eat and would like a friendly experience. my breakfast was over $30 for a kids meal & a two egg breakfast. a little smile would of been nice.

Have you ever wanted to step back in time and just relax with iconic comfort foods on the menu? This is the place... the moment I stepped in the restaurant oldies standards was playing softly in the background... Sinatra and other 40's tunes... the decor fit the mood... the feel sitting in the booths was wonderful... I could smell pot roast, and hot sandwiches in the air... but I decided on chicken pot pie... not as good as Claim Jumpers, but very close.... My friend got a Parmesan Patty Melt which reminded me of a San Francisco... I loved mine and he loved his... he told me he used to go here a long time ago when he would get something similar with Onion Rings... too bad they don't serve those anymore... You can tell this place has been around and knows it's niche... I will be back... breakfast lunch and dinner!

Hof's Hut is an institution and I can see why. It gives Denny's vibes - booths and breakfast all day - but much cuter with better food. I came for a late lunch on a Monday and this place was banging with all the seniors. Neighborhood hangout apparently. Here for the breakfast and pies. For my entree, I opted for the Melting Pot omelette ($15.50). A Hof's Hut Signature item, it comes with three egg, Jack and cheddar cheese, crisp bacon, tomatoes, green chiles, and avocado with a side of hash browns/potatoes + toast/muffin. Let me tell you, my omelette had just the right of amount of fluff to get in some crispy edges. The combination of tomatoes and green chiles was a nice change to the usual tomato + diced green bell pepper combo. It also packed a little heat. Overall, a very solid omelette. I can see Hof's Hut working its way into my diner rotation. I loved the booth situation, the fresh pies, and community ambiance. I will definitely be back to try more of their menu items.

We had the sweetheart meal, my husband had rib eye steak, veggies and rice and I had a salad, salmon, veggies and mashed potatoes, we also got individual heart shaped chocolate cakes, everything was delicious and our server Trish was very nice and friendly, she made sure we were well taken care of.

One of three locations in SoCal (Long Beach, Seal Beach, Torrance), Hof's Hut of Long Beach serves up a huge menu of American diner classics, most of which is available all-day. There is a large shared parking lot with plenty of spots in the back, and both indoor and outdoor seating available. Prices were decent, and portion sizes were OK. We came for breakfast on a Tuesday, and because we came through the front (opposite the parking lot), we bypassed the front reception. But unlike other places where we would then have to walk all the way across the restaurant, instead, a waitress (Liz), directed us to an open table close to where we came in. She then became our waitress and was the one taking care of us throughout the meal. As mentioned, the menu is very large, and includes alcohol (wine and beer). Except for a few exceptions, all of it is available to order anytime. Wife got coffee ($3.49) and free refills were easy since a small thermal carafe was provided tableside. It took us a bit of time to make our choices...for Halloween, they were offering specials so my wife got the Pumpkin Pancake Combo ($16.50), which came with two pancakes, bacon and eggs. She really liked it, enough to bring the leftover pancake back home. I will almost always choose a dinner if available, even if breakfast time, so got the Chicken Parmesan ($17.75). It did not come with noodles, but instead choice of garlic bread or corn bread, scoop of mashed potatoes and creamed corn (there were other choices but don't remember them). I thought everything was good, reminding me of a good meal from a cafeteria...expertly assembled using food service ingredients (mostly from frozen). Service was excellent throughout. Liz is definitely a professional, knowing how to juggle multiple tables, knowing the right times to check up on us, and always keeping a calm, pleasant demeanor. One can tell the normal clientele from the background music....it was music style from the early 20th century. Hof's could definitely fit anywhere across the country, as long as there are older folks in the area who appreciate old fashioned diners in a bit of an upscale environment. There's no reason to bring out of towners here...chances are, they would have a similar favorite restaurant like this from where they came.

Hi everyone! It was blast from the past day on a visit to Long Beach this past weekend! I opened up yelp to find a place for breakfast and found there was a Hof's Hut close by! I was thrilled as Hof's Hut was always a favorite of mine growing up! So, off we went! Upon walking in the door, I was not disappointed. Although, thankfully, the ambiance of the restaurant was updated, they still had the bakery case as you walk it! Yum!. They still also have a nice outside, covered patio area, where we chose to sit. We were seated promptly and the service we received was excellent and our waitress was delightful! I ordered chicken fried steak and eggs with a blueberry muffin. The food was good and the blueberry muffin yummy! The portions were large and I could not eat it all! Is Hof's Hut gourmet? No. Is it good, filling, food in a casual environment? Definitely! If you are in the area, be certain to give it a try! Jim

Have always passed by Hof's Hut many times it's restaurant logo is very eye catching & it's cute esthatic structure makes you want to go in & give it a try yet check it out. Very pleased i came to give Hof's Hut a try being a FIRST TIMER! met up with an aquitance after my daughter's morning award assembly. Her & i came to have breakfast more to talk about Bixby's Mental Health Awareness Planning as i am part of the DEIB Committee at the school; upon arriving was greeted by young bus boy from there our waitress was a sweet older lady she sat us down, took our orders. my friend & i both ordered Breakfast Omlettes Combo 1 word so delicious!! then my son got the French Toast

I was treated to the best birthday breakfast ever: cinnamon french toast, sausage patties, eggs & a mimosa. My server Trish treated me like royalty. Her personality along with great service said it all. Thank you & God bless you lady.

This is a good place, with a big menu, comfortable seating, a convenient parking lot behind the restaurant, and great baked goods! The service we received from Jazzlyn was excellent. I haven't found my favorite meal there yet, but I did enjoy my fresh strawberry cream puff! What made me the happiest is their Chocolate Strawberry Trifle. I read about it in a Yelp review, and asked about it when we had our dinner. They didn't have it that day, and usually just take pre-orders for whole cakes, but kindly they made it possible for me to order a slice to pick up in two days. They said otherwise people can call and ask if they have it that day. It was DELICIOUS- moist chocolate cake, whipped cream, chocolate ganache and fresh strawberries. I will be ordering this cake every single time I visit my sister in Long Beach from now on- it's that good!

My husband and I visited Hof's Hut-Los Altos this afternoon after having our taxes done. Our server was Trish and she brought our beverage choices out right away. We perused the menu and we both decided on one of their salads. Trish came back to take our order. We told her which salads we had decided on. For the first time ever, a server asked if we wanted our salads "chopped". We both said yes, thank you. Made eating those scrumptious salads so much easier. Hoping Trish will be working on our future visits. Thank you Trish and Hof's.

I had never been to Hof's Hut but decided to try for lunch. We opted for the Long Beach location. There is a parking lot in the back but we ended up finding a street spot right in front of the restaurant. There is a substantial patio with outdoor seating as well as several indoor tables. Our waitress was attentive and provided good service. I did have to proactively ask for the complimentary bread that accompanied the meatloaf. The interior is very cozy. As for the food, portions are generous and prices very fair. I loved that the chicken pot pie crust was flaky, and that the crust was all the way through (not just the top). The strawberry lemonade was decent and bottomless. The cornbread was moist and came with real butter. They also offer sweet potato waffle fries, which were crispy and unique! We finished with a fresh peach pie, probably the highlight of the meal. The peaches were nice and chilled; they were large slices and very juicy. The pie was not overly sweet. It's great that they offer individual mini pie sizes in addition to a whole pie for smaller groups. Overall, my lunch at Hof's Hut exceeded my expectations and I will definitely be back!

Trish was amazing! She had us sat right away, and was warm and personable. She was very friendly and would check in often. She was great!

Cliff Notes Price Range: Medium Parking: Lots Perk: Chocolate Strawberry Cake Non-Perk: Food Ambiance: Not quite a fast food feel, but close Dress: Casual Noise: Medium Temperature: Comfortable Recommend: 80% Dissertation Their food was smh, but it's their desserts that made my day! Absolutely loved their strawberry chocolate cake! It was so light and fluffy, I would eat it everyday if I were able. If you're ever around there, I would definitely give the cake a try! We actually got one to go, it was that good!

I rarely visit here anymore. Truth be told, I stopped going years ago when they changed their ranch. #truestory They used to have THE BEST ranch. Probably my favorite restaurant ranch out there. I would always get a dinner salad before my meal with it. It was delicious! Then one day it changed. Whhhhyyy? Why change a good thing? The new one was NOT good. I digress.... We had a BOGO birthday coupon to use so we decided to try it out again. It HAD been quite some time. I got a turkey sandwich with sweet potato fries. The waitress brought a side of ranch with it. Of course I had to dig in and see if it was still the awful ranch they changed to.... I'll admit, it actually tasted better but it wasn't the scrumptious ranch I knew and loved. My husband got a Hof Burger. They took away the Hof Burger combo and no longer offer Frings AND there is an up charge now for onion rings. :-/ Everything changes.... *sigh* The food was tasty and enjoyable but I'm not sure when we'll go back next. Probably when we have another BOGO coupon.

Love everything about this place - the history, the food, the interior looks old-timey, and I love it. Service was solid. We were sat at a booth and were very comfortable for the duration of our meal. I got a breakfast quesadilla, and wonder why more places don't have something like that! The quesadilla is HUGE here. Partner got a veggie omelette, and.... ok I'll be honest, I forgot what our friends got, but it was all very good (and the quesadilla lasted me two meals). Parking is pretty easy - there is plenty of parking out front and a lot in the back.

First time here. Kind of a cool looking place. I had the hangover burger and it was amazing. Basically a cheeseburger with a fried egg and chili. The service was pleasant and very quick.

A great little gem to eat some delicious food! We found this spot on Yelp when we searched best breakfast spots to stop off in Long Beach. Before heading to the cruise terminal we stopped here and glad we did because their breakfast combos and salads are delicious! This place is definitely worth a try if you are in the neighborhood.

Everything about this place is really old skool and who doesn't love that. The service is impeccable and the ambiance really takes me back. Everything here is delicious so order anything.

TRISHHHHH!!! she had great service. the apple pie and pumpkin muffin were really good.

Well Trish has been helping me for years now and I have to say she makes hof's hut a pleasure. Goes out of her way and makes sure you have everything you need. The food is good and not expensive which helps. I wish the cheese was more like authentic cheese than what seems to be a bit like velveeta (cheese food). Over all it's one of my go to's before my work in Long Beach! Yay

I'd like to commend Patricia for excellent service. She was so vey nice, cheerful and helpful. She's also charming and funny. Made us feel right at home. The food was very good. Hof's French dip was excellent and the fry's crispy. Then there is their blue cheese salad dressing, yum! Thanks Hof's for keeping it so good for so long.

Amazing breakfast and even better service from Trish!! Thank you for taking such good care of us and not rushing us at all. We will be asking for you personally next time. (pee chee sweatshirt girl)

I recently visited Hof's Hut on Bellflower with two friends for breakfast and we had the most perfect meal. The coffee was fresh and hot ( both regular and decaf) and all three of us had delicious breakfasts cooked to perfection! Eggs over medium that were just right and crispy hash browns which were prepared exactly right and fluffy blueberry pancakes! Our server Trisha elevated our experience with her warm, friendly personality, great suggestions and prompt service! Thank you Trisha for making our morning so much brighter!

Trish is always a pleasure. Coffee is always hit and full, and that alone keeps me coming back. Food is fresh and tasty. Great family eatery. Will come back again. Highly recommend.

Pre-ordered a pumpkin & an apple crumble pie for Thanksgiving. They were the worst pies we'd ever had. The crusts were pale, pasty & underbaked. The pumpkin tasted of way too much nutmeg. And the apples were semi-hard with a "crumb" topping that looked like a dusting of graham cracker. Both were terrible & we threw them away after first tastes

Love the ambiance, great service friendly staff. Food was good yet to try their lunch menu. Breakfast was great, only thing that I was disappointed was with the side of fruits that they served . 4 large slices of cantaloupe and honey melon. Wish it was cut into small pieces and served on a bowl. Apart from that love the food

I've been dining at Hof's Hut for years and I've always had a mixed experiences. I haven't been there for quite some time but I met a friend for lunch there this past Thursday. Trish was our server and it was such a delightful experience! She has amazing patience and not only was she very attentive to our needs but she provided us with the best service I've had for many years! Thank you Trish!

I have been here a couple of times early in the morning after the gym. It's usually not crowded when we arrive, usually around 7 :30am but today, we arrived at 9am. More people than what we are use to but service was exceptional. I ordered the Hof's Omelette (comes with hashbrowns but I opted for fruit) with wheat toast and my friend ordered the pancake combo with strawberries. Our meals were fulfilling and would definitely return when I don't feel like cooking after a marathon of a work out. Afterwards, my friend ordered their banana nut bread to go which he claims is the best. Will definitely return!

Excellent service and yummy food! I've been to the other restaurant in Torrance . And it was as good if not better. We ate breakfast and all of it was great! Our server was very sweet and bubbly! I can't remember her unfortunately. Either way, great restaurant

Food and service was incredible. Quaint cozy diner with a warm ambiance and atmosphere. Trish, our waitress, was incredible and kind. Definitely coming back! Cinnamon french toast was a 10/10.

I was a lil frustrated at a service situation but I have to say the possible manager made it all better by getting involved . She over heard me saying something to the employee and she jumped in to save the day. She offered to seat me right away but had to decline and get it to go. She offered me an extra cornbread. Come on now. What problem doesn't go away with corn bread lol. Ty Hof's hut for making the best turkey dinner !!

The last time I ate inside Hof's was pre-pandemic because I typically order using DoorDash. I placed my order through their mobile site and picked it up 20 minutes later. There's plenty of seating and it's usually a packed house. The staff is helpful and hardworking. The muffins are delicious and worth trying!

Burgers are Terrific, Fries if Double cooked are Excellent! Service continues to be Superior! Ambiance is Traditional, which means "Just fine",,, All in All, Judy Good Meals!

For breakfast Kim was my server. She did her usual excellent job. Very attentive and kept my water glass filled

Always a must when in Long Beach. I've been visiting Hofs Hut since I was kid. Today I stopped in for lunch since I was working in the area. What a treat to come in and treat myself. I was also served by Trish who is so personable and was great with every one she waited on. Thanks for my treat Trish! Happy Valentine's Day!

Get the parmesan melt and ask to sit in Trish's section when you go to Hof's Hut!! She's the best!

I had an outstanding turkey pot pie here. The crust was buttery, crisp, and baked to perfection. The filling had large chunks of turkey, peas, carrots, everything you would expect and need. Piping hot and it even came with a very large side salad. I was stuffed. I didn't even have room for the pie and pastries that looked so good in the glass case on the way in. You still get large portions here for affordable prices. Plus, who the hell still goes through the trouble of making pot pies? Maybe just a few restaurants still offer them, and this is one of them. Ok, ok. The clientele is a little...of a different generation. A generation that values the old days and old recipes (and old prices). But the staff is fast, they remember your order and you are going to get a full belly for what you spend. Can't say that about most places these days. Omg! Am I turning into "that generation" now?!?

We had a great breakfast this morning! The food was excellent and Trish took such good care of us! She was super nice and anticipated our needs. She understands that fruit shouldn't go on the hot plate with eggs and brought it separate without having to ask. My hero! We're regulars and I hope she's always our server from now on.

Food and service was great! Patricia made our day. We had a tuna melt and two egg Hmaburger patty breakfast and everything was fantastic!
